Summary
- “The Brave and the Bold” includes the Bat-family, adding more depth to Batman’s character and interactions.
- Robin was not supposed to appear in Batman – Part II because James Gunn refuted a rumor about Dick Grayson.
- The DCU should aim to create a Batman that is closer to the comics, with unique stories, and move away from grounded interpretations.
I can’t see The Batman – Part II using a key part of the character’s myth, the The brave and bold is confirmed that the focus on, and that makes me more excited about the new DC Universe version of the Dark Knight than the sequel to The BatmanDon’t get me wrong, I am a fan of Matt Reeves’ The Batmanand I am interested in The Batman – Part IIHistory and whatever else the world has to offer, such as this year’s The Penguin Spin-off series. That is, The brave and bold is, for me, a step higher.
So far, the DCU has yet to announce who will The brave and bolds story or who will play the Dark Knight. Nevertheless, I am confident that the film will be great. Although I had some problems with the DCEU The Flash Film, I thought it had more good than bad, and all Batman/Bruce Wayne scenes were handled very well by director Andy Muschiettiwho has been announced as the director of the DCU’s Batman reboot. I think the film is in good hands, and a revealed story detail has me very excited.
I’m thrilled that the DCU is giving us the Bat-Family
The team is the best thing about Batman comics
James Gunn, the creative director of the DCU, has announced that the Bat-family in The brave and bold. Damian Wayne will play an important role in the filmwith his relationship with Bruce Wayne being the driving force of the Batman reboot, while other members of the Bat-Family will play a role in the project. I’ve wanted to see a fully realized live-action version of the Bat-Family for years. The closest we’ve come to that was in DC’s Titans Series that featured three versions of Robin and other characters. However, the show’s inconsistent quality limited the team’s potential.
The introduction of Damian means that the core characters of the Bat-family like Nightwing, Batgirl, Red Hood and more should all be established in the DCU.
I love the dynamic that the members of the Bat-Family have with each other in the comics and other media, and I wish the DCU would make the most of it. Damian’s introduction means that the core characters of the Bat-Family, like Nightwing, Batgirl, Red Hood, and more, should all be established in the DCU if The brave and bold Seeing the obviously brooding Bruce interact with and mentor younger heroes is a great way to see the many sides of the character, make the DCU Batman more complex than most live-action versions of the hero. The Bat-Family brings out the best in Batman.
I can’t imagine Robin appearing in Batman Part II
A rumored role was also revealed
The Batman – Part II will continue the grounded universe that director Matt Reeves started with the original film. I don’t think this franchise will feature a kid in a colorful costume to fight crime alongside Robert Pattinson’s Batman anytime soon. I just don’t see like the rough sound of The Batman Universe could fit the idea of introducing a Robinalthough I thought that The BatmanThe ending of could have served as the basis for Dick Grayson’s debut, as Batman became more of a hopeful figure for Gotham City.
James Gunn already revealed Robin’s appearance in The Batman – Part IIwhich put this possible storyline on hold. Last December, rumors emerged that Dick Grayson’s Robin and Batman villains like Professor Pyg and Scarecrow would appear in The Batman – Part IIto which Gunn replied: “Nope. Completely made up.” With the rumors about Robin were shot down and the character makes no sense for The Batman – Part II, The brave and bold becomes more interesting for me because the DCU movie is the one where I can finally see an ideal version of the Bat-family in live-action.
I think the DCU can best bring Batman to life in the comics
There are already enough grounded Batman stories
DC has already tried many well-founded versions of Batmanand used Batman’s early years for several projects, such as Christian Bale’s debut in Batman begins and Robert Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne in The Batman. I think we’ve had a lot of grounded and more realistic versions of the Dark Knight, and I hope the DCU goes in the opposite direction. I want to see The brave and bold and the rest of the shared universe takes up aspects of the Batman comic stories, making full use of more offbeat villains like Clayface.
Several characters from the Bat-family have not yet made their debut in live-action films.
I want to see a Batman who interacts with other heroes and lives in a sprawling live-action comic book world. There is a lot of potential in the character’s interactions, as a mentor of the Bat-family or as one of the leaders of the Justice League that have not yet been explored in live-action films. With Pattinson’s Batman also early in his career in The Batman – Part III hope we get a Batman in his late 30s or 40s in The brave and boldbecause that’s the perfect age for a Batman with a whole Bat-family.
